How We Met
The last place we thought we'd meet someone was at work...especially since our team is made up of three people. However, God had something in the works! We started as co-workers, which evolved into being friends, which led to long conversations after work hours, lots of movie dates, and eventually falling in love. :) As many of you know, we are both film lovers and work for a filmmaking ministry in Austin, TX, and we get to travel the world and document cinematic stories of real-life faith. Matt is an extroverted filmmaker, and Kristin is an introverted producer. Nice combo! We like movies, coffee, hiking, camping, long road trips, traveling, and Paddington Bear (ask us why he's special!) We are so thankful to God for bringing us together and writing our story...it's been more wonderful than we both could have imagined.

Other Lodging Options
If you'd like to stay in a different hotel, you can view other negotiated hotel prices for both Canyon and Amarillo at the button below. There are also great options on AirBNB in the area. If you want to stay closer to the venue, then finding a place in Canyon will be best to save a little time getting to the wedding. If you want to stay closer to the AMA airport, we suggest finding a place in Amarillo.

Things To Do
Palo Duro Canyon State Park
Go enjoy a hike in the park! The Lighthouse Trail is quite popular and definitely worth it.
Palace Coffee Company
Great coffee and a great atmosphere located in Canyon's square! We always visit here when we're in town.
Cadillac Ranch
You gotta visit Cadillac Ranch and spray paint one of the cars...Amarillo's claim to fame!
The Big Texan Steak Ranch & Brewery
It's world famous, folks! You may not be up for a 72 oz. steak, but there's plenty of Texas character at this joint.
Antique and Vintage Shopping on 6th Street
There are lots of vintage and antique shops on 6th Street in Amarillo! We had a really fun time exploring this area last year.
FAQs
Question
Do you have a hotel block?
Answer
Yes we do! You can find information about our hotel block and other lodging options in the "Travel" section of our website.
Question
What time should I arrive at the ceremony?
Answer
Please arrive no later than 4:00pm to allow plenty of time to enter the park and drive to the venue.
Question
Do I need to pay to enter Palo Duro Canyon State Park?
Answer
We've got you covered! You won't need to pay to enter. Simply tell them you are with the "Schroder Cotov" Wedding.
Question
How do I get to the Mack Dick Pavilion?
Answer
Once you arrive at the park, simply follow the road until you get to the bottom of the canyon. (You'll pass the visitor center entrance on your way down.) The pavilion is the first building on your left. (You can also type "Mack Dick Group Pavilion" in Google Maps and it should lead you straight there.) The drive is about 8 minutes long.
Question
Is there a dress code?
Answer
The dress code is cocktail attire. Wear cocktail dresses, dressy jumpsuits, and dark jackets and slacks.
Question
Are kids welcome?
Answer
We love your kids! However, due to a small wedding venue, we are unable to accommodate children beyond our immediate family and wedding party.
